Field trip to Circle-A

New England is home to quite a few custom frame builders and this week a few of us from the shop visited Providence's Circle-A Cycles to check out the shop but more importantly to get fitted for new bikes!
I have never thought of getting a custom frame but, being on the tall side, I have had a really hard time finding a bike that fits me well. So I figured in order to get a bike that actually works for me, I need to get a custom build. At least that is what I keep telling myself. After a tour of their shop, Brian, pictured below, got me sized up for my new frame and starting plugging in numbers to get me a perfect fit for what I plan on doing with my bike (wheelies mostly). Check them out, the guys down there (Brian and Chris) are very cool and make some of the neatest looking bikes around.

Door 3 Gallery 2009 Premiere

The Door 3 Gallery's premiere show of 2009 coming up April 30th !  Come by Broadway this Thursday between 8 and 9:30pm for some great art in the most intimate gallery in the city.  Art, Music, refreshments, cheese and crackers...sounds like a perfect way to spend a Thursday evening.  

Moving day

I was on Chic Cyclist's blog the other day and saw this pic of one of the mechanics who works here at Broadway. He built a shelving unit for the shop at his house and was transporting it over to Broadway on our bike trailer. Looks like hard work - he should have just used the shop Hummer!

Klean Kanteen

New Klean Kanteen bottles are now in stock with a new and improved drinking top. $18 for the 27oz and $16.50 for the 18oz.

New Single Speed!

In addition to the super popular Redline 925, this season we have another single speed in stock- the Torker U-District. At only $350, it is our lowest priced new bike and perfect for your short commute around Cambridge.

Spring is here....

Well things are getting really busy around here! In years past, we had been closed on Mondays so that we could catch up on work and order parts but this year for the first time in many years we will be open 7 days a week during the Spring and Summer. So starting April 13th come on down to Broadway any day and we will be here! It should be a hoot!
